Safe Disposal of Commercial Products
For a global consumer product company; Gradient developed a guidance document for proper disposal of their cleaning and floor care products. We evaluated disposal to large centralized treatment plants (POTWs) and smaller decentralized systems (i.e.; septic systems) and described how the client's cleaning products could interfere with wastewater treatment processes if disposed of improperly. We also evaluated current U.S. wastewater regulations and permitting procedures. Gradient's manual provides practical guidance for plant managers at facilities that use large product volumes and helps technical sales staff address their clients' questions regarding proper product use and disposal practic
